  • Three Proposed Ways to Stem the Email Influx – high level comparison of SPF, DomainKeys, and Caller ID; see also Who Will Win the SMTP Authentication Wars? – an old topic, but worth bringing up since I’ve noticed a lot of talk about Domain Keys. I originally saw DK as being useless, but now think that it’d go well w/ SPF. The latter would do a huge chunk of the (very fast) first pass filteirng, and Domain Keys would then be able to authoritatively confirm (protecting against phishing). Whose knows? Maybe the decreased volume will make up for the huge processing cost (unlikely, as until the economics changes, spammers will have every motivation to work around stopgaps)

  • Jon Stewart’s (’84) Commencement Address

    I am honored to be here and to receive this honorary doctorate. When I think back to the people that have been in this position before me from Benjamin Franklin to Queen Noor of Jordan, I can.t help but wonder what has happened to this place. Seriously, it saddens me. As a person, I am honored to get it; as an alumnus, I have to say I believe we can do better. And I believe we should. But it has always been a dream of mine to receive a doctorate and to know that today, without putting in any effort, I will. It.s incredibly gratifying. Thank you. That.s very nice of you, I appreciate it.
